India: South Asian Paintings from the San Diego Museum of Art

India is the first exhibition of South Asian art to be hosted by the Speed in its nearly 100-year institutional history. Replete with colorful and exquisitely painted portraits and manuscript illuminations reflecting the rich and diverse artistic traditions of South Asia over four centuries, the two exhibitions promise to dazzle visitors of all ages and backgrounds.
